SDN, know your own application well

What impressed you positively?

the way student feedback about courses and cirriculum is used...UF has good board scores...lecture and PBL combined

What impressed you negatively?

nothing really...except after i said i was interested in primary care, interviewer told me i should go to USF or FSU because "UF trains specialists"

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

while there is no formal MD/PhD program there is a research track that can become anything you want...

What are your general comments?

The student interviewer was hard to gauge, he generally asked from a list of questions and that felt kind of formal…he didnt give any verbal/nonverbal feedback so it was a little intimidating, but he was seemed to be paying close attention to what I said… His questions related almost entirely to medicine. The faculty interview was very conversational and low stress because it flowed and was natural, I ended up having fun and feeling like i learned something and wanted to go to school at UF.
